Reverse Osmosis water system for sink and fridge (lemmy.world)

Our town's water keeps failing to meet DEP standards, so I'm investing in a filtration system for our drinking water. What I think I'm looking for is:

  • Has a tank, since there are 5 of us
  • Filters out lead, PFAS, PFOA, etc. (Which is why I'm leaning towards RO)
  • Good warranty and customer service, for when something inevitably goes wrong
  • Remineralization (picky about water taste)
  • UV (maybe?)

Does anyone have recommendations for a quality brand, or one that they've had for years that they like? I'm not sure where to even start.

Are you sure that your water supply won't install a PFAS/PFOS removal system in the next few years? If they do then your investment will have been for naught. It took my town's supply about two years to get a system installed and running.
